Nice game. It fits the theme nicely and the graphics are smiple but effective. One thing, after the bottom counter hit 3 it stopped increasing, and the entire simpulation slowed down. This made is almost to easy as I didn't even need the power ups anymore due tot he size of the normal shot.
Good entry, keep it up.
Now this is an interesting one.
I would have rated this a lot lower if it wasn't so damn funny. The AI of the cats is interesting. Their walk is very glitchy, but also very funny to watch. Also, they constantly launch into the air, especially near the feeding/drinking bins.
Another funny thing, for some reason you can walk faster going sideways then forward. Is the old lady a crab? She can also hold quite a few items.
Anyway, I really liked it.
Keep it up.
Cool concept and nice game. The main issue I had was that it was easy to get stuck between the trees.
Nice entry, Keep it up.
Good game. Graphics where cool and I liked the monster to food combinations. I would however add move food slot or change the way food is generated. In the beginning I had food for monsters I did not have, but no food for the monsters present.
Good entry, keep it up.
Nice game and a good take on the theme. The start of the levels seemed a bit to random at start, but overal quite liked it.
Keep it up.
Very good game and very nice take on the theme. I didn't figure out what I needed to do until well in my first playthrough. Still hard but very fun.
Nice game. Love the art style. The game was missing some features to make it exiting and the UI needs some work. Explanation of the building should be added in game.
Good entry, keep it up.
I'm liked the game and the various puzzles. However the hold to thrust is quite hard. I would suggest adding a light above the level so you will have a bit of shadow below the cube to help you guide it.
Nice game, keep it up.
Nice game. The controls however... Controlling the forklift with the mouse made it really hard to control. Adding keyboard controls would probably make it easier.
I did like the graphics and the overal feel of the game.
Keep it up.
Not bad. Took a game or two to figure out how it worked and was pretty fun to play. Also, you get points for shooting the ship you are supposed to help.
Nive game. I liked the combination of gameplay mechanics, but not all worked together as well. If you spot an asteroid when flying a rocket you couldn't go back and man a turret without actually flying the rocket to the sun or crashing it back on the planet and wasting resources. Very good entry. Keep it up.
Nice game, but it is kind of slow paced. After the initial rush of items if becomes easier to manage what you want to return. Also, the audio gets annoying after a while. Liked the graphics though.
Still very good entry.
This was more fun then I expected. While the UI can be a bit unclear when starts are grouped, it does work for the game. What would have been nice was a quick fill option when moving pops to the ark and to planets. Even with the slider at max, it would move no population if you didn't move it.
Very nice entry. Keep it up.
Ok, this was a bit confusing. Do I need to dodge the boxes or move them? Maybe add a small description in game what the basic goal is, even if it is text on the wall.
Keep it up.
Nice. I liked the circular level. The art is also nice to look at. One thing I would recommend is some feedback when you hit/kill a ghost. It was a bit hard to see if I killed it or it got me.
Nice one. That was pretty fun. I liked the app style reviews and intro. Keep it up.
Ah yes, the LCARS menus. Nice job on both the theme and the style. The starting levels where quite easy the the last two took me a bit to figure out.
Also, the future looks bright when we need to defragment your drives by hand again :)
Keep it up.
Your download link is not working.
I like the concept. A few things though, the game is harder in the beginning when your energy is not fully charged and villagers start comming in. Also, I would suggets just aining at the mouse pointer instead of moving the throw direction with a marker near your character. This keeps the player from needed to look back at the main character to see if the throw alligns.
Good game and very good first attempt. Keep it up.
I liked the game. Got pretty hectic in later waves. That or I'm just out of practice.
To bad you couldn't finish the game. It was a good start for a tower defense game. One thing though, I have no idea what the shield building does. It shows an area of effect, but does no damage or slow enemies down.
Nice entry. The first car was hard to control though. The game was fun though. This combination might actually work with some tweaking.
I liked this. It is a simple concept but fun to play. You could probably make this into a full game.
This is a very solid entry. It was pretty addicting and has good graphics. I liked the walk animation and the akward stack of people you carry.
Pretty solid entry. I always like these typing games, even though I'm not very good at them. Great job.
Nice but hard game. I had some problems with shooting at first though. It looks like it is targeting a but above where the mouse is pointing.
Great game non the less.
Nice game. It did feel a bit sluggish when you ram an enemy and they explode. Liked the music.
It was interesting when you figured it out, but the tutorial should have been a bit more clear.
Interesting idea, however it bacame near unplayable at the end. Could be an interesting game with a bit of polish. Good game.
This one was a surprice. I was about to quick the game after the first two car sales thinking, is this it? Then I noticed that the original car did not dissapear. Really good take on the theme. Keep it up.
Not a bad game, but it was a bit hard to see what was going on. Also, the attack collission seemed off. Could be a good game with a bit of additional polish.
Great job. This has a good mood for a game where very little is actually happening. Nice puzzles. Also, i liked that the sound of the footsteps changed when you grabbed those orbs. Keep it up.
Nice game. I liked the graphics and the feel of the game, but it was really quite and there was also no real progession.
Great game an nice fit for the theme. The gargoyls really kicked my ass the first time thought. Keep it up.
I liked the concept put it is a bit hard to play at the moment. First of all, it would have been better if we could see the entiry room instead of this zoomed in mode. Some of the doors where also odd, closing after only a second even if the enemies are destroyed. Also, the life counter isn't working correcty.
The is the basis for a good game, but it does need some work. Keep it up.
Nice game. Some music would have really improveed the overal mood of the game and the sound would get a bit reppetitive after a while. Keep it up.
I couldn't play the game correctly as well. It seems like there are UI panel poping up over the buttons that make it impossible to click them. This happened both on the buttons on the right side and the ok button on the dialogs. Going fullscreen made the issue worse. I tried running it on both chrome and firefox.
Seems like a nice game thought.
I like it.
Some issues I encountered: The first two beers look a lot like each other. Also, customers spawning at the bar will not only intercept beers already thrown before they spawn, sulually resulting in an unhappy customer, but also block most of the customers behind them until the despawn.
Good game. Keep it up.
Nice game, however some parts took it down a bit.
The trade values seem very random. I had 3 planets in a row with about the same prices for all resources. This made repairing and upgrading difficult. Also, it is hard to dodge enemy fire.
Overal I enjoyed the game. Keep it up.
I liked it. It was quite addicting. At first I thought that the enemy arrows moved way to slowly, but it became a lot harder to dodge when the group was growing. Great job!
Nice game. I'm pretty fond of dungeon crawlers, so this was right up my ally.
Some things though:
The fact that you heal on level up made the game to easy though. Managed to get all the gold and then some (lost track with the messages) on the first day.
Also, I would have opted to include keyboard commands to make navigating easier. Constaly clicking can get annoying and keeping the mouse pressed caused my character to walk around enemies at times.
Very nice game, keep it up.
I liked the ricocheting bullets. It felt a bit hard to hit them at times, but overall a good game.
I actually managed to miss the gun the first run and then got lost in the environment :) I liked the game, however the movement is a bit hard to control. Inside buildings it seemed like the player would take very large steps, making navigating them a bit hard. Overal a good game. Keep it up.
Very nice but also quite hard. I liked the overal feel of the game. This would make a good casual game with a bit of work.
I liked it. The game starts simple enough but it can get quite hard in later levels. Good job.
No VR. --WL
A clicker game? Sigh... that feels more like work. -- WL
Outside is the bigger inside, right? Right!? RIGHT!
Sadly didn't feel much like a game :|
-- WL
Not rated since the web players throws an error. -- WL
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the theme (not even slightly unless I'm missing something). Dying doesn't seem to have any effect except that you get another random level. In that essence the levels seem to be randomly generated causing you to also spawn at locations that are hard to complete. If the levels were designed by a human it would more likely have rated higher. -- WL
No VR. --WL
I don't like coffee, do you have tea? :P
But in all seriousness: Nice use of theme and the gameplay (time management sim) ain't bad either. Some animation and music would have really added value. -- WL
Great game! I love the art but the 72h version random resulted in a left card too often making it indeed an exercise in frustration. But high marks overal! -- WL
PS: Your repo is still set on private...
The graphics are good, but without explanation the fun is quickly gone. This game would have greatly benefitted if there were some clear instructions in what you should do and what the game mechanics are.
Removing the sleeping mechanic (which remains unclear to me) or even automatically popup the messages would make the game more enjoyable.
Atmosphere and graphics were great, but the gameplay suffered a bit because it was not clear and required quite a bit of effort to understand.
-- WL
Loved the game. Feel really polished and is very fun to play. Keep it up.
Nice game, but some of the enemies will start shooting really fast and I got this error twice:
FATAL ERROR in
action number 1
of Step Eventobj_bullet
for object obj_enemy3_base:
local variable __b__(100001, -2147483648) not set before reading it.
at gml_Object_obj_enemy3_base_Collision_2
While interesting, the movements where a bit akward and most objects stopped moving then you where standing on top of them.
Very nice entry. Loved the style and mood. Can be quite hard though with all the animals running at the house.
Again, exelent entry.
I liked the game. I love cats. The mice AI wasn't the smartest though. Half of the time they walked right into me (even when holding cheese) instead of walking toward the cheese or back to the holes.
Also, I never saw a purple mouse.
Took a bit to figure out what was going on, but finished with him alive non the less. Nice job.
Liked the game. The dragons did perfer to walk over the snow in a direct line towards eachother. This made dodging the traps somewhat harder.
The AI seems to spawn a lot more units than you can. The game was fun, though a small description or explanation would have helped.
Nice game. When clicking options the screen turns black. Also, the enemies had a lot of health compared to the speed your mana recharges.
Very nice game. Liked the ship building concept. Is there any way to repair the main ship after you get damaged?
Quite hard game to play, those are some tough zombies. The graphics where not quite my thing.
The game crashed instantly at my machine unfortunately:(
The game crashes instantly on my machine when trying to run the game
Nice game, also surprisingly fun to play. I enjoyed playing it very much. The only criticism I have is that the graphics are a bit lacking.
While I liked the game, the fps was a bit low and in combination with the motion blur made lokking around a bit annoying.
Liked the randomness of the puzzle.
I thought the game was a bit confusing on how to set up your chocolate factory.
Nice game, although I wasn't able to prevent trump from becoming president:(
Nice game, but the ball was a bit hard to control. It also felt like it was moving in slowmotion, while the rotation of the room was fast and fluent.
Vary fun game. Though the number one cause of death seemed to be suicide. The enemy kept ramming into the walls...
Well done. This was pretty funny.
Liked the game, but the last puzzle glitched. I only filled in one color when the puzzle completed.
Loved the gameplay and graphics.
Nice idea. It was easy to dodge the enemies, just keep changing the gravity.
Interesting game mechanics.
I liked the game. The sword movement took a moment to get used to but was executed well.
Not as easy as it first seemed.
Couldn`t play it unfortunately. when starting i just see a blue column on the right side of a black screen with some sort of cloud at the top.
Love the game. Fun and very hectic.
Relaxing and solid game, I am missing a bit of an end goal in the game though. Also quite strange I had quite a bit of cash and then after one harvest most of it was gone, not quite sure what happend there
Unfortunately I was unable to run the game due to an outdated gpu.
I liked it. But one thing seems to be missing. The cat.
Not what I was expecting. Like how the room kept changing.
While a bit confusing at the start it was fun to play. Oxygen depletes really fast when it is broken though, giving you almost no time to fix it.
Damn this game is good. The only remark I have is that my computer lagged when the final documentary is shown, it used up all my cpu usage. Other then that I really loved it, I have given it the maximum amount of starts!
Interesting concept, nicely adapted to the theme but I didn't like the camera movement and I really missed some music and sounds.
Nice towerdefence game. Impresive for just 48 hours. Altough its not very innovative its still a solid tower defence. It does need some balancing though, the first few waves are decent in difficulty but after that it is way too easy. also would be nice if it rememberd which tower you placed last so you don`t have to select each time you want to build and sell functionality would have been nice. Still impressive for the short amount of time.
It's cool that you made a NES game. Unfortunately I didn't really like the game. The first two levels were really easy while the third was significantly harder. That in combination with the poor graphics and the lack of sound didn't quite cut it for me.
Really nice, the art is just amazing especially if only one guy did this in this short amount of time. I was expecting a bit more features though for tree programmers or maybe I just didn't figure out what to do properly. I liked the interactions but most thing didn't seem to be doing much except kill you. Overall a great game tough.
Funny to play but I didn`t like the graphics and I missed some background music. THe game could also use some balancing.
Liked it, but the collision was a bit twitchy. You could change scene in places when it was unintended. An example is right at the start where if you jump high enough, you enter the outside scene.
Good game and nice mood.
The screen was a bit laggy and the graphics where not really impressive. also the gameplay was not my thing
Loved the game. Interesting take on the normal strategy game.
Loved it! The graphics are very simplistic but after a while I kind of liked that about the game. It came it quite well thanks to the awesome sound and neon lightning. I liked the controls but the game gets quite easy when you know how to control the ship. To bad though that there is no victory screen with your stats for that game. Now you suddenly start over when you found all checkpoints.
Really funny game, I liked the sounds and grapics altough I didn`t really like the gameplay.
Unfortunately I don`t have controllers so I cannot play the game. Looks quite nice though.
Pretty decent and complete game. The walking controls were a bit weird, especially the way the camera acted behind the player made me a bit sick.
I loved the graphics and animation. The game is fun as well but a bit boring if you are the only one playing. An A.I. would have been nice.
Very nice game. I really liked the music. The game was awesome at start but it began to bore quite fast. It might be more fun if more elements were involved which relate to the crowds party mood.
I was unable to start the game
Game moved to fast. Only 4 seconds per character.
Nice graphics though and the idea was great.
Beutifull graphics, but very stiff controls.
A bit hard to control. Also, it seems you cant grab the purple scratch marks.
Good game, but had a lot of problems climbing the rope.
Nice game. Liked the turning mechanics. I liked the cooldown on the weapon as you had to consider your shots more carefully.
Nice game. Liked the drawn grapohic style. Hard platformer though.
I really liked this game. Very interesting take on the theme and funny seeing the monk get buiried in leaves.
Loved the graphics and the music.
It's fun when you figure out what to do. The initial desription wasn't really clear. Maybe give some indication which walls are portals.
Otherwise, very nice game.
Nice game with some good artwork. Walking animation was at times a bit strange.
Pretty nice game. Bit hard to actually get the shifter between all the civilians though.
Very nice idea. It was fun trying to cruch Jack, but the bean stalks where a bit hard to climb.
For some reason no people showed up.
Not sure if this was intended, but if you hold the left mouse button a stream of soliders would fall from the sky.
Otherwise fun game.
Very fun indeed. When you get large enough you don't even need to look at the humans anymore. Just walk over all the buildings and see them fly.
Took a moment to get used to but very fun game.
Fun concept but had some problems selecting the units.
Also, you might want to disable the web context menu when using the right mouse button to deselect. You can change this in the build settings for web.
Fun, but also hard.
Fun game but needs balancing. The clone ability makes the level 1 guys way better than any of the higher level due to the cooldown. Also, hotkeys would have helped a lot.
Good entry.
Love the old curved TV effect.
Liked the pens and the final boss.
However, the blue background blocks made some of the actual blocks a bit hard to see.
Interesting idea and execution.
Fun enough, though good luck hitting anything with a useless slow kitty cannon...
For more reason the terrain isn't rendering. I can only see the cars, turnips and buildings in both the web and download version.
I'm getting a 404 for both links.
Nice idea, but planets will slingshot too easily out of the system never to come back.
The ladders are glitchy and sometimes the chickens die randomly without any interaction.
Fun game, though the text was sometimes hard to read.
Very impressive, though it was really hard to keeping track of what was going on. Very nice work.
For anyone who is experiencing crashes, if you have a two video card setup (especially an extra Intel HD graphics card) make sure windows is picking the real graphics card when the game is starting. On some systems it defaults to the weaker Intel HD card and that might give you an error.
LD48 — Deeper and deeper (26)
Yet Another Shmup by AssertFailure 2021-05-02T14:45:05Z ♥ 1
I love a good shmup. One thing you could add is giving the enemies some small attack patterns that leaves openings for the player to exploit.
Currently with them all shooting downward at a rather high rate of fire means that you can only safely take them out by either hitting them at the edge of their hitbox or shooting ahead of their movement direction.
Very good entry non the less.
Under Pressure by OadT 2021-05-02T14:33:54Z ♥ 1
This was a very fun entry. I had fun experimenting with the construction. Most subs I made did get very far.
Into The Depth by shnigle shnagle 2021-05-02T14:22:05Z ♥ 1
I liked the switch between the 2D start and 3D finish. I finished all the levels.
One thing that could be improved though was the stage between 2D and 3D. After picking up the first coin, nothing changes besides the visuals. Most levels also had the two coins close or next to each other.
Very good entry.
Pix'in' by DancesWE 2021-05-02T14:13:28Z ♥ 1
Interesting game. I liked that you could not see the entire maze. This made it quite a bit harder. Good entry.
Solar Winds by bkelly 2021-05-02T14:03:17Z ♥ 1
Interesting controls. I also liked delay of your inputs. If you create some interesting levels around the idea it would make for an interesting game. Very good entry.
Space Cave by Timo Gass 2021-05-02T13:54:54Z ♥ 2
I liked the game. Combat was pretty fun. Dodging the enemy shots while fighting them was not that hard, but the second I tried to fly past them they turn into snipers every time. Anyway, good entry.
Unsigned Hero by Caterpillar Games 2021-05-02T13:46:15Z ♥ 0
Good little game. One tip, make the enemies spread out a little bit when they approach you. Currently, it is very easy to bait them all into one line, making the levels very easy.
Into The Depths by EchoGamer437_YT 2021-05-02T13:37:42Z ♥ 0
I liked the game, but is was sometimes hard to see the obstacles. Ducking obscured your view, which would be fine if you could see the obstacles for further away. Also, looking around didn’t really seem that useful.
Good entry.
Implosion by Caveman54 2021-05-02T13:28:08Z ♥ 2
I liked the puzzle elements but some of the text was very hard to read.
Aquarius by XOREAXEAX 2021-04-28T20:12:36Z ♥ 1
Very calm and relaxing game. Impressive graphics for such a short time.
Good entry.
The Super Futuristic Shrinking Veterinarians by jogy34 2021-04-28T20:01:10Z ♥ 0
I liked the game. Graphics where quite nice and I also liked the idea. Shooting was a bit hard, it seems like there was an offset and sometimes it was hard to see if the shot even connected. The platform elements were also quite hard.
Overall a good game.
Descent into Madness by danvil 2021-04-28T19:41:00Z ♥ 1
Very atmospheric game. Loved the visual style. Starts of quite easy but gets a lot harder around the midpoint.
Good game
Necro Digger by gnaro 2021-04-28T19:33:41Z ♥ 2
I liked it. When you get enough minions they dig almost everything instantly. They do move very slow though.
Good game.
Ocean Cleanup by Weirdybeardyman 2021-04-28T19:22:45Z ♥ 1
I liked the game. The controls where a bit hard to control at time, I face planted the sub more than I collected trash in my first run. Great game and good entry.
Deepest Darkest Double Bogey by jimmothysanchez 2021-04-28T19:18:26Z ♥ 3
Loved the look of the game. Managed to win with one stroke remaining. One tip though, bind the power to the mouse wheel. Otherwise very good entry.
Cave Runner by Sir. Syko 2021-04-28T19:06:45Z ♥ 0
This was actually quite fun. I didn’t really get that far on my runs but I did really like the slow motion dodge effect.
Good game.
Hellfall by Tom Robson 2021-04-28T19:01:40Z ♥ 2
Very nice game. The third and sixed levels where quite hard. I also liked you created the main menu as part of your levels. The game also feels quite polished.
Into the Matrix by TheGamer1123211 2021-04-28T18:49:23Z ♥ 2
Cool game. I liked the style and gameplay. The levels did get harder and getting send back one level for the umpteenth time was a little bit annoying.
Good game overall.
Archeo by zimny11 2021-04-28T18:38:12Z ♥ 1
I liked the game overall. Digging and finding the artefacts was fun. However, getting the sand of artifacts was very time consuming and also felt a bit random when you had enough for it to fall off. Compared to how easy it was to brake the stone it might needs some tweaking.
Good game
Aftermath by Peace Of Cake Games 2021-04-28T18:31:02Z ♥ 1
I liked the mood and setting. The text was sometimes a bit hard to read.
Good game
Deeper In The Night by Lorwon 2021-04-28T18:22:21Z ♥ 0
I liked the mood and graphics. I always love the mix of 2 and 3d. However the controls where a bit awkward to use.
Good game overall.
The Limbo Runner by jk5000 2021-04-28T18:15:33Z ♥ 1
This was an interesting game. I liked both the idea and execution of the game, though I’m very bad at it. Also loved the intro.
Good game.
Null_byte by XariusExcl 2021-04-28T18:09:53Z ♥ 1
I had no issues with the input (QWERTY) so the input fix worked. Nice fast little game. Is was easier to just dodge and jump over the enemies than to fight them. Not sure if this was intended.
Good game.
Octopus Diver by Voxel Forest 2021-04-28T17:58:39Z ♥ 1
Love the art style. Levels where a bit large compared to the slow movement speed.
Good game.
1GEMCLIC.EXE by verysoftwares 2021-04-28T17:51:42Z ♥ 1
Not a bad clicker game, but the audio might need some, eh… tweaking. Nice game.
Mind Depths LD 48 by LittleGamer 2021-04-28T17:42:12Z ♥ 1
Great atmosphere. The simplistic music and graphics really worked in favor of setting the mood. One think to note though is that there are quite a few hidden “walls”, mostly from the hard to see insects or whatever spawning on the floor. Good entry.
